  • Child: The children of an row are the rows that it directly contains

  • Handle: The triangle to the left of each row

  • Parent: The parent of a row is the row that directly contains it

  • Root: The topmost row in an outline is the root row. The root isn't visible, instead the top level visible rows in Bike are children of this hidden root row.
